I agree that green color looks pretty sharp with the chrome wheels i approve. Black has gotten old for me, looks like crap unless its spotless

Honestly that's one of the very few trucks I've ever seen in that color that I like. It just works how you've got it set up

Medium Bright Blue Metallic. '97 only. Same as mine. One of the nicest colors GM ever painted these trucks!

I really like this, but I've seen too many black satin vehicles lately.

Check the front bumper. It's a different black. Called 'Trim Black', or 'Bumper Black'. (Whodathunkit?) It's shinier than satin, but it's not a real high gloss. Been thinkin' about painting my '98 with that. Cheap! I do the prep, tape it up, & I can get it painted for $750.00. With the new box & fenders I have, there isn't a lot of body work to be done.

Also my favor color these trucks ever had, if you couldn't tell

Yes Duplicolor made a color in the GM truck spray paint back in the day called 30% black that was for trim and interior paint (30% gloss) so it doesn't glare. I think the part # was T90 or T99. They also made a really cool looking black metallic paint too.
